The new patch for Star Wars: The Old Republic is now live. New story, a fresh planet, and plenty of Jedi in distress are waiting for their rescue.
Since yesterday (December 12, 2018), the latest patch of Star Wars: The Old Republic is online. Update 5.10 “Siege of the Jedi” takes players to the planet Ossus, one of the home planets of the Jedi. The Sith are launching an attack, and this opens up a new story that is told throughout the quests. It also includes a new daily area where players can spend their time once the story is completed.
War breaks out again: The focus of the latest patch is the slowly resurfacing war between the Empire and the Republic. After many other threats have been dealt with, the two factions are going at each other once more.
The player must decide: An important part of the storyline lies in the hands of the players. They can decide whom to help with the alliance and whom to betray. Those who were once a Sith of the Empire can now also aid the Republic, while Jedi may also choose to lend their support to the Empire (as it should be). The decision impacts the story and could also have long-term consequences.
Kicking off a major expansion? Many players suspect that with the renewed outbreak of a war, a new expansion is being hinted at that could follow next year. However, there are currently no further clues or concrete indications – it is wishful thinking of the community, which has been yearning for more than just the next small content patch for a while now.
